T all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ToIoHI FURUro, a citizen of the Dominion of Canada,and resident of Pennant, in the Province of Saskatchewan and Dominion ofCanada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inBinder-Roller Holders, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to improvements in binder roller holders and theobject of the invention is to provide means for securely holding binderrollers when replacing the repair pieces thereon.

Further objects are to provide means of this kind for holding the rollerfirmly itself, that will hold any kind of wooden roller. lVith theforegoing and other objects in view, the invention consists essentiallyof the device, an embodiment of which is described in the presentspecification and illustrated by the accompanying drawings that formpart of the same.

Referring to the drawings, in which like characters of referenceindicate corresponding parts in each figure.

Figure 1. is an end view of a roller fitted with an embodiment of mydevice.

Figure 2 is a side elevation,

Figure 3 is a side elevation of the device, apart from the roller.

In the drawings, in which an embodiment of my device is illustrated, Arepresents a binder roller and B a chain adapted to encircle it. One endof this chain B is provided with a ring 10 while mounted on the otherend is a sliding ring 11.

12 is a hook member substantially semicircular in formation and providedat one end with a bent point 13 adapted to engage the wooden surface ofthe roller A, while 14 are a plurality of notches in the pin adapted toengage with the ring 11 on the end of the chain B.

15 is a pin adapted in operation to prevent the ring 11 from becomingdisengaged 4 from the hook member.

In operation, the hook member 12 is set on the roller A and the slidingring 11 on the right top of the roller. Then the chain B is broughtaround the roller once and a suitable rod or pin, as shown in dottedlines, passed through the end ring, the roller being turned slowly withhand until one end of the pin or rod catches against the roller, theother end being held by hand.

As many changes could be made in the above construction and manyapparently widely different embodiments of my invention within the scopeof the claims, constructed without departing from the spirit or scopethereof, it is intended that all matter contained in the accompanyingspecification and drawings shall be interpreted as illustrative and notin a limiting sense.

What I claim as my invention is:

1. A holder for binder rollers comprising a hook member adapted toengage a binder roller and formed with a plurality of notches therein, achain adapted to embrace Ithe roller and provided with links at eachend. 7

2. In a device of the character described, the combination with a binderroller, of a hook member designed to engage said roller,

a plurality of notches in said hook member and a chain adaptedto embracethe roller 75 and having links at each end designed to engage with thenotches in said hook member.

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand.
